I don't think that Sinclair is out of contract as I vaguely remember being reported at the time of his trade that he was given a 4 year contract (2016-2019), but I can't find anything online to verify this. My thoughts are if he was out of contract it would have been mentioned in the media by now.Comment

Roar article (Josh Elliott, pretty good journo) said it was four years:
?It?s believed the lure of a four-year deal is what swayed Sinclair from his original plans to remain with the Eagles despite outside interest.?

How many of us could possibly think that Cal Sinclair might be leading the Bob Skilton medal at this stage?Comment

He doesn?t make too much of a song and dance about it.
He?s pretty cool .Comment

Was definitely four as many posters were complaining about having to pay a spud for four years and how we lost the Jetta trade! What did Midnight Oil sing? Short memories must have a ..... :-) Sinclair has been huge, credit to him and anyone in the coaching staff responsible for the big lift in performance.Comment

Agreed. I have to admit I never thought of Sinkers as a lead ruck. I thought he was a handy forward with the potential to pinch hit in the ruck, but didn?t think he had the smarts and competitive streak he?s shown this year. Good on him.Comment

That's how he came to the Swans.
As a tall forward with a potential upside and the ability to move to ruck when needed.
Annoys the hell out of me when commentators express their amazement that he is doing well in the forward line.
Show how much they know - they see him as a ruck only for some reason.The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.Comment

Adding to the Darcy Moore story we now have reports that we are after Jeremy McGovern:
AFL trade news: Sydney leaps into the race to secure West Coast free agent Jeremy McGovern | Fox Sports
I'm surprised that we can afford to pursue these players, especially McGovern. In any case, it represents a big vote of no confidence for Aliir and Maibaum. If there's any truth to this we can expect Aliir will be out the door at the end of the season. It would seem that the management feel that 2016 was an aberration and Aliir will never reach that level again.
I wonder what will happen with all these KPPs that we are accumulating. I now think that Franklin will go on past his current contract. So what will happen with McCartin, Amartey and Blakely, let alone Aliir, Maibaum and Pink? We seem to have an excess of quality KPPs yet are pursuing new ones. These are not the kind of players who will want to be spending their careers in the reserves waiting for players to retire or get injured.Comment

We seem to be linked with almost every player that is available, but seldom one of these come to fruition. The acquisitions that we do get come out of the blue.Comment

I am sure that McGovern would be a great acquisition but I think that he is most likely to re-sign with the WCE when it comes down to it. I feel we are more likely to pick up Moore from Collingwood than him given DeGoey?s tremendous form yesterday (how good was he?). He will now need to be paid big money to stay putting greater pressure on their salary cap.

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.

9) Prohibited
Anything deemed to be of Adult content or porn related nature will be removed immediately. Selling or offering of drugs, drug references, other than those openly discussed and identified in the press, will also be removed immediately. Breaches of this rule carry the highest infraction points and may result in permanent bans on a first offence.
10) Off-topic Posts
Some members prefer to just read Swans or footy related posts. This is, after all, a SSFC website. Ensure you post threads in the appropriate forum, or they will be moved. While threads will sometimes move away from the original topic, do not deliberately drag a thread away from its original subject.
11) Attachments
Attachments within the size limit prescribed are permitted. However, due to costs associated with uploads/downloads, if you wish to attach a number of files within a thread, or feel that the quality of the attachment is compromised by the file size restrictions, you may wish to use external hosting providers and link to the files there.
12) Moderator / Administrator Group
The Moderator / Administrator group reserve the right to delete or move threads / posts as well as remove signatures / avatars as necessary according to the rules of the RWO forum.
13) Final decisions
